Of Things Quirkily Chennai


1. It’s the land of jasmine flowers. Even auntys who go for walks along the beach in the evening have the entire season’s flowers pinned to their hair.


2. There are two kinds of Tamilians. One, people who can understand what their maid says and reply to that. Two, people who search around for a translator(preferably the grandma next door).


3. The males expose more skin(read: flaunt their calves) than females. Why, oh why, would I want to see Mr. Hairy Legs, ride a motorcycle with his dhoti tied up above his knees?


4. The heroes in movies who resemble the vada pav sellers you see outside Ghatkopar station. Where are the Hrithiks and SRKs of Kollywood? And talking about movies……


5. The Rajinikanth Obsession. Where in the world would you see milk abhishek being done to a cutout? In the theatre lobby? I might get taken out to the streets and stoned for writing that, so incase you don’t hear from me for a while, you know what would have happened.

I had to read it twice to get 'milk abhishek.'
You could write 'paal abhishegam' or at least 'milk abhishegam' but abhhishek?
That said, you definitely belong to category two.

You mad Taurean..there's no way in hell I'm a Rajini fan!
Fuzzy, not many non-tamilians would get paal abhishegam. Hence the hindi version :D
And you're halfway category 2 too.
